There are several distinctive framing systems which can be (in turn) combined into interesting and effective "hybred" methods :

• Stick-built framing
• 2x4 or 2x6 studs on 16 to 24 inch centers, fiberglass added between the studs and wall finishing hung on the inside walls.
• Post-and-beam (Timber Frame) construction  in combination with SIPS (Insulated Structural Panels)
• Posts (vertical) and Beams (horizontal) are combined by mortus and tendon with insulation inside the framing and siding on outside of posts and beams.
• Log Homes
• Logs act as structural support, insulation and inside and outside wall finishing.
• A-Frame
